WELCOME TO THE
Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to
our Allies, and their families.
Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen
for today's activities
Making a quick stop to check out the latest.
I'm thinking summer even though
it was 13 this morning and
today will only get to 18-ish.
Crazy ass weather.
Now that's all I'm going to say about it
cause I know our northern FRiends
are worse off...well...
except for Ma in AK.
The FR Canteen is
Come in, sit down.
Grab a cup of joe, or tasty tea.
Mingle a bit, chat with the troops
or family member.
There's always plenty of conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS in the FR Canteen.
REMEMBER THEM ~ DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

More like the high 40’s!
I have invented an inexpensive, green, sustainable, and eco-friendly lard-burning device to get us all through this horrible winter. I hereby call upon Al Gore to make the first donation to get us started.
